Just as the muscles need our attention to stay healthy and resilient, so does the connective tissue. In order to keep our muscles healthy we need to approach them in a dynamic way, we need to move and stretch. Muscles respond to stress and effort, however our Yin tissues are very different.

Rather than movement and striving, which are yang ways of approaching things, our yin tissues need gentleness and acceptance. When we go into a Yin posture the first line of resistance we face as our joints open or close is from our muscles.

Get cozy, dim the lights, and please let me know how you feel after the practice.

This class was recorded from my home in CA as a Zoom call on November 7, 2020, During a time while we are mainly staying at home, let us stay connected through practice and reverence. Join along and breathe with us.

at the beginning of the class we chant:

Asato ma sad gamaya Tamaso ma jyotir gamaya Mrtyor ma amrtam gamaya.

Lead me from the unreal to the Real. Lead me from darkness to Light. Lead me from death to Immortality
